Welcome to the site, I live in Chiefland and work in High Springs. I have a group that gets together and rides every now and then. I hear that Ocean Pond in Dixie county is full and not much for atvs because of high water. There was supposed to be a group riding at Osceola Forest either today or tomorrow. I was trying todecide if I wanted to go Tomorrow or stay home and do some welding on my trailer to haul the quads on.

There's a place near the Crystal River Nuke plant called Dixie Holland's place. I wouldn't ride there - you could get a heavily armed welcoming committee since 9/11.
